Bangalore: Police get DNA test report of French diplomat

Bangalore: The DNA test report of a French diplomat, arrested on the charge of raping his four-year-old daughter, was received by the police in Bangalore on Friday.

"We have received the DNA test report of Mazurier this evening. Some contents (findings) in the report are negative and some others positive, Hence we are seeking certain clarifications (from the lab)," said ACP (Law and Order) T Suneel Kumar.

Pascal Mazurier, Deputy Head of Chancery in the Consulate of France here, was arrested on June 19 following a complaint by his wife Suja Jones Mazurier, a native of Kerala, alleging that he had raped their four-year-old daughter. The issue led to a public outrage before the diplomat was arrested.

The French diplomat was arrested by the Bangalore police on the charge of raping his four-year-old daughter.

A magisterial court on July 3 had extended by 14 days the judicial custody of Pascal.

His bail petition has been adjourned to July 9 by a fast track court after police filed objections to the plea.
